The Otherside
Navigating Love's Turbulence: A Journey to the Otherside
Lyrics
Passed out on the couch with lies rotting my mouth
Expressing being in a state of unconsciousness on a couch, burdened by falsehoods.
I watch the ceiling, I've tried with healing
Reflecting on the ceiling, attempting to heal from emotional wounds.
There's so much a drink can do
Acknowledging the limitations of alcohol in solving problems.
I had to walk out of the bar and hop into my car
Leaving a bar and entering a car, possibly indicating a desire to escape.
I hate this feeling, I tried with dealing
Disliking a particular emotional state, attempting to cope with it.
Let me take the blame for you
Willing to take blame or responsibility for someone else.
Maybe I'll be the one to be with you someday
Expressing hope of being with someone in the future.
Hazy without no one just to hope I'll see your face
Feeling unclear or confused without a specific person in life.
And if it don't happen then that's all right
Accepting that things might not work out and being okay with it.
Maybe I'll see you on the other-side
Expressing a possibility of meeting the person on the 'other side' (after challenges or in the future).
Words get stuck in my mouth
Difficulty expressing thoughts verbally.
We tried, it won't work out
Acknowledging that efforts to make a relationship work have failed.
The lies are peeling, the truth's revealing
Deception is fading away, and the truth is becoming evident.
Our love is burning down
Describing a relationship in crisis, possibly nearing an end.
I got home but don't know how
Returning home without understanding the journey or experience.
I had to get out of your town
Leaving a place associated with the other person.
I'm done concealing, here's how I'm feeling
No longer concealing emotions, expressing true feelings.
I don't care if you're around
Indifference to the presence of the person in one's life.
Maybe I'll be the one to be with you someday
Reiterating the hope of being together in the future.
Hazy without no one just to hope I'll see your face
Feeling unclear or confused without a specific person in life (repeated).
And if it don't happen then that's all right
Accepting the possibility that the desired future may not occur.
Maybe I'll see you on the other-side
Expressing hope of meeting on the 'other side' (repeated).
Tell me all the things you say when my back is turned away
Seeking honesty about feelings expressed when not present.
Let me hear about your pain and how I made you feel this way
Inviting discussion about the impact of the speaker's actions on the other person.
Maybe I'll be the one to be with you someday
Repeating the hope of being together in the future (repeated).
Hazy without no one just to hope I'll see your face
Feeling unclear or confused without a specific person in life (repeated).
And if it don't happen then that's all right
Accepting the possibility that the desired future may not occur (repeated).
Maybe I'll see you on the other-side
Expressing hope of meeting on the 'other side' (repeated).
